Message: [QUOTE="David G, post: 1637854, member: 75960"] Poker Orifice, I'm not saying it will and hopefully doesn't but dude it can get to the point where you feel BLESSED to win 80/20's (pair over pair) and you're downright lucky to win [B]a[/B] 70/30 (AKvsA10). It also can be like that for MONTHS, I wouldn't lie to you man, I have no reason to. Hang in there. Mine shook me up so bad (as you can probably tell by my rambling posts above) that although I've made some goals and one of them is to never let it get to me again, I do have to say I'm literally scared to have it come back and am actively looking for work to make sure I never have to face that situation again (running horrid, but playing for a living). If it were to come back, and I mean come back not just a week or two, I would quit :( It's kind of a weird spot to be in because I know it's (oh so) possible so it stings even more when I get 19ths etc because I KNOW how precious each opportunity is and how it can be completely stripped from you at any moment and it could be so epic that you may never have another shot (like I said, I'd quit) So todays 6th hurt (and you can see there's an 18th and a cpl other deep runs just today) and although I got the hand in with an 80% fav on the river, and lost, I still fell 1000000000000% better knowing that I have a chance to even make final tables, but I do have that ugly feeling within me that says "you need to hit something on every chance" because of the knowing that the utterly epic downswing of luck could come back. To give you an idea how serious I take this, I literally never "give up" and will never take ANYTHING for granted and you can see that by just looking at my (lol nitty) stats by the time I got to the final table today [IMG]http://i56.tinypic.com/2wbynbb.jpg[/IMG] ^^ those are stats of a person who's been through an epic run of bad luck and is doing everything he can to take ever opportunity as if it were his last. I had ten big blinds or less from about 45th on and at times was down to 4 or less. Anyway the cliffs are: 1. It can get MUCH worse 2. Be thankful for EVERYTHING you have, including hands you "should almost always win, winning" 3. The game owes you nothing and can be cruel, take advantage of EVERY opportunity it gives you and do not take anything for granted. 4. Don't give up unless you really are giving up for good gl [/QUOTE]
